Is there a similar thing for estrogen? What's the estrogen use in the UK and how is it used comparatively?


Birth control pills contain Progesterone and Estrogen (well, actually Estradiol), so the figure is probably really high.


Point of information: there exist both "combined" and progesterone-only contraceptives, which may be chosen depending on how the user experiences side effects.


I don't know about estrogen but I am really surprised that 98% usage are from males. Anecdotally I see an increase usage of steroids in women. The fat burning is incredible.


Because Testosterone is a bad choice for women if they want to use PEDs, Anavar is a much better option, and Clen is often used for fat burning (although Anavar on its own is really decent for that as well).


Yes. Apparently men using anabolic steroids only outnumber women by a factor of 10:1, which strikes me as kind of low!


Where did you get 10:1 from?


A PDF that I found earlier and then bloomin' lost because I was accidentally in a private browsing window while testing an app logged out... This one I think.

Can't copy and paste from it. Section 6.5. I may have misinterpreted it though to be honest, and I don't have time to get back into it in depth.


Women who have went through the menopause will do HRT for similar reasons that men with low T do TRT.
